Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The reason for the revision reported was likely caused by an insufficient bond between the femoral component and the bone, which led to aseptic (non-infected) femoral loosening or due to inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Failure of the cement used to secure the femoral component to the bone, may have lead to loosening at the cement-implant and/or cement-bone interface; however, this cannot be confirmed as the devices were not returned for evaluation.Wear could not be confirmed for the tibial insert or the patella from the provided images.H6: corrected component and investigation clinical codes.
